Chapter 36: Chang'an 3
He snorted coldly: "Fire!"
Faced with the Han army's sudden hedgehog-like formation, Hou Qin Chongqi hesitated slightly, and before he could get closer, the momentum slowly slowed down.
"No," a trace of consternation and annoyance flashed in Yao Xun's eyes.
This is very wrong, these are definitely not displaced people. Where could those rabble put up such a tight formation?
Moreover, at first glance, this formation is known to be specially designed for infantry against cavalry.
This is the regular army!
Could it be that there is a rebellion in the country? Yao Xun thought to himself. I didn't think in the direction of the Han army......
Moreover, soon he will not have a chance to think about things again.
At this time, the cold light in Liu Shengzhi's eyes flashed, and he waved the order flag in his hand.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The sound of "whooshing ......" crossed the air like a chirping, but the sound was much louder.
Dozens of black shadows slowly and leisurely streaked through the air, and the slow speed seemed to streak through the air like flies.
It even gives people the illusion that as long as they stretch out their hands, they can grasp these black shadows in their hands.
Then, these black shadows landed in the heavy cavalry formation.
Yao Xun could even see with his own eyes a slow-looking black shadow falling on a cavalryman not far from him, and then a flower in front of him.
But I don't know what's going on, the cavalryman who wears three layers of armor and is quite brave in the army, the whole person is shattered. Flesh and blood......
Warm blood even sprayed on Yao Xun's body, but in his mind. It's all blank now.
The cannonball easily passed through the cavalry and then hit a horse behind. The horse screamed and fell. The skull is gone.
Then the shell fell to the ground. The kinetic energy is not eliminated. Then he jumped up again, flew diagonally, and once again punched a large hole in the thigh of one of the horsemen and the belly of the horse.
In just the blink of an eye, six cannonballs, all of which were fired by six-inch guns, were like the god of death descending, wielding a scythe to harvest life. At least a dozen cavalrymen died under this shell.
It seems that the lethality is very average, mainly because the air raids between the cavalry are too large. Not as tightly packed as the infantry.
The real tight cavalry formation will have to wait for more than a thousand years before the West begins to carry out reforms......
At this time, even if the heavy cavalry charged, the distance between the war horses was several meters wide.
Although the casualties caused by these six shells were not large, the riots caused were definitely not small.
Anyone who saw the power of this cannonball was almost stunned. Even Yao Xun was no exception, and his mind was already blank.
Now he just subconsciously rushed towards the Han army's array. The order he was about to give just now had already disappeared into the clouds......
Liu Shengzhi's eyes saw three thousand heavy horses rushing towards him, and the momentum was amazing. All the soldiers under his command were trembling subconsciously.
Although these soldiers are brave and not afraid of death, they have undergone extremely rigorous training.
But under the impact of such power. The whole formation still seemed a little scattered.
Three thousand cavalry charged together, and in terms of tactical command, it was already a bad mess. The formation pulled out is seven or eight miles long......
This is clearly the general of the cavalry. He looked down on the Han army led by Liu Shengzhi at all, so he deliberately surprised with his momentum.
Under normal command. These heavy horses were supposed to be divided into two or three classes, or even five classes. Take turns to pound.
But now it has to be said that three thousand heavy horsemen charged at the same time. This scene was simply terrifying, and the size of the formation looked more than ten times larger than that of the 10,000 Han army......
Rushing over like this, as if opening the floodgates and releasing water, gave all the Han troops a completely invincible feeling.
It was the sacrificial wine of the Heavenly Master Dao under Liu Shengzhi's command, and they all forgot to cheer up and agitate at this time. The officers even forgot their duties......
In the final analysis, the army under Liu Shengzhi has not really fought a tough battle. From top to bottom, not too experienced.
In the face of the majesty of the three thousand heavy cavalry when they charged, they almost forgot everything!
Until the six cannons were fired, the rumbling sound shook all directions, although it did not bring much damage to the local cavalry, but it woke up all the Han troops at once.
Only then did those military officials remember their duties, and the sacrificial wines mixed in with it shouted hoarsely: "Resist, resist." No one is allowed to mess around, you must fix my ......"
"Today is the time for me to serve the King of Han, born to make meritorious contributions, even after death, I can also go to heaven. The sons and daughters shouted after me, kill Hulu, go to heaven!"
"Kill Hulu, go to heaven!"
"Kill Hulu, go to heaven!"
Between the shouting of the slogan, the morale rose rapidly.
In an instant, although the morale of the Han army had not yet recovered to its peak, it rebounded all of a sudden, but it was about seventy percent.
On the other hand, on the side of the Later Qin cavalry, six shells hit it, but it had already caused a lot of confusion locally. So much so that at this time, the morale of the Later Qin cavalry also dropped to seventy or eighty percent.
In this way, one trades off the other. In Liu Shengzhi's eyes, at least the one who was suppressed at the beginning, the military spirit that had turned into a coiled snake, was raising his spirits and began to face the attack of the goshawk!
At this time, Qin Chongqi had already rushed extremely close, and even his facial features could be seen clearly.
Liu Shengzhi snorted coldly: "Kill Hu Lu and go to heaven!"
He picked up a spear first, crossed the formation, and stood at the forefront of the large array.
Such a first-class action ignited morale at once, and all the soldiers shouted: "Go to Hulu, go to heaven!"
followed the step, wanting to cover Liu Shengzhi behind him.
At this time, the long-term training finally began to work. Let this Han army step out step by step, just like one person, step out of this step in a uniform manner.
One step out, morale skyrocketed. The military spirit of the Han army suddenly became high-spirited and violent, and the head of the snake, which was originally low, suddenly raised and provoked the goshawk......
And the Hou Qin cavalry on the opposite side, especially the Hou Qin cavalry who rushed to the front, clearly saw such a scene.
This kind of action of tens of millions of people as one is simply too shocking.
Especially the cavalry who rushed to the front, they could see it clearly. The long spear stood up like a hedgehog's thorn.
Maybe they, the Later Qin heavy cavalry, can break through the Han army's array, but they, the Later Qin cavalry who rushed to the front, must be dead...... (To be continued.) )
